1986 UEFA European Under-18 Championship qualifying
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
This article features the 1986 UEFA European Under-18 Championship qualifying stage. Matches were played 1984 through 1986. Eight group winners qualified for the main tournament in Yugoslavia.
It was the first time only eight teams could enter the main tournament, which means the qualifying stage became more extensive. Qualifications had been organised for several years, but these were on a smaller scale, since there was still room for sixteen teams in the main tournament.
